Eh, can't really say. Don't you think that's kind of steep for that kind of monitor these days? Well it doesn't matter I don't think a 10 dollar difference matters. I like the front design, the back looks a little big. My monitor is a bit bigger. I have an old Gateway EV700 monitor, from years back. I just built this PC so I'm still looking for a monitor myself. I could live with this one to be honest though.
